Overwatch 2 Patch Adjusts Weekly Challenges, Adds Competitive Mystery Heroes
The long-awaited mid-season patch is available for Overwatch 2. It adds the One-Punch Man collab event, available until April 6th but also adjusts the distance to which players can hear enemy footsteps. As for changes, the developer said it found “a nice middle ground between where it was in Season 2 and where it was before today’s patch.”
Challenges have also seen adjustments, with “To The Victors” and “Coin Line” removed. New Weekly Challenges added include “Casual Dedication” (win 15 games in any Unranked mode), “Competitive Advantage” (win 10 games in any Competitive mode) and “Change of Pace” (win five games in Mystery Heroes, FFA Deathmatch or any Arcade mode).
Daily Challenges have also seen some changes, with “Support Weapon Mastery” requiring 10,000 damage instead of 12,500 and “Support Ability Mastery” going from 10,000 to 8,000. You can also check the progress of Challenges at the end of matches. Also, those who love Mystery Heroes can partake in a Competitive version, with Season 1 beginning on March 14th.

Adjusted Distance Attenuation on Enemy Footsteps
We missed a change in our Season 3 patch notes about some adjustments made to the distance in which you can hear enemy footsteps. We’ve continued to refine this change and have found a nice middle ground between where it was in Season 2 and where it was prior to today’s patch.
